too much attitude, not enough red
add ARE to the list, after IDP. maybe throw in LEED, too.
did i tell you that i passed the contracts exams? next up is MEP! before they change the format in feb.
i have so many tales of my professional life, but i wouldn't change a thing. all that red ink gave me a humble perspective, and made me not only a nicer co-worker (ie, team player), but a better thinker. unfortunately, i can't speak for my design skills. i am not even allowed to "pretty up" this horrid little box the people of Perry Hall, Maryland think is sacred for the design of their community library.
Oh, and this is good, yesterday, i find out that they voted down the bus parking, for school buses, etc, because they don't want buses near their precious homes! DO THEY EVEN REALIZE THAT A BIG YELLOW BUS IS MORE ATTRACTIVE THAN THIS PROPOSED BRICK SHED?
no, and that is that. this is what architecture is in the united states, people. but never fear, all is not lost, i think this project will make a good exercise for learning revit. ¶ 1/17/2007

yeah, everything you said, but also, all that ink...
may account for some missing gray matter.
the state of architecture in the US, i had an argument with my mom, trying to explain to her that 'this' is not architecture. this is greed, power, ignorance, and head up assiness.
you know i'm torn on life decisions. but this definitely makes me want to pack up and leave the country!
i remember working on a school (not in SC but NZ) and we actually consulted child development experts,
that is architecture.
